Topic: Black Rock City

The host announces upcoming listener meetups in Nevada, Los Angeles, Ohio, and New Zealand. He also addresses the low ratings for a previous episode featuring Soraya Azkath, speculating that the paranormal subculture might be less popular than conspiracy topics or that the audience lacks context for long-standing figures in the field. He expresses a sense of kinship with the "OGs" of the paranormal space who are still active.

The episode concludes with a list of upcoming Higher Side meetups in Raleigh, North Carolina; Wainwright, Alberta; Austin, Texas; and Black Rock City, Nevada. These community events are promoted as essential for "energetic recharging" and building local networks of like-minded individuals. The show ends with a thematic song about the loss of the outdoors and the rise of a controlled, indoor society.

The August meetup calendar is announced, featuring events in California, Washington, Texas, New Zealand, and North Carolina. A specific event titled "The Vomiting Sparrows" is clarified to be a meetup at Burning Man in Black Rock City on August 28th. Carlwood also mentions his upcoming attendance at the Astro Gnosis conference in Wheaton, Illinois.
